Procrastinista

Tapper: (subtext) this is how me and the rest of my colleagues will frame this activity

I miss when you could just turn a TV on and start flicking.

Leading into 2022, centrist Senators Manchin and Sinema had blocked DC statehood, Build Back Better, voting rights legislation, AND abortion rights protection (right after Dobbs!). Biden was left asking for more Dem senators to make them irrelevant.

yep. Sanders/Warren/AOC were extremely enthusiastic about Biden's domestic agenda. the people who blocked it were Manchin and Sinema.

And occasionally responds. I’m talking about the accounts that exist to “shame MAGA” by amplifying bullshit. My attention is worth more than that.

I’m all for giving clap backs that are deserved. If someone pops into your mentions spouting bullshit, you respond how you see fit. But I’m not talking about the kind of account that serves up plenty of original content content.occasionally

If all you are doing is amplifying voices that piss you off, then you’re just intentionally pissing people off. And now if you have a ton of followers and are monetized, you’re pissing people off for profit. How are you any different than the right wing grifters, at that point?

What is going to get more views? MAGA being contrite and thoughtful or MAGA being self centered dipshits? It’s all attention economy. It’s not real and I’m tired of people grifting off of our anger.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

Somebody didn’t listen to Missionary Man by the Eurythmics…

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

🍿 MTG still making sense. This past year really has felt like we’re living in the upside down.

You don’t know shit.

If every person who has attempted or plans to attend a No Kings March votes Blue in the midterm election Congress can be retaken. Think about what this simple act can accomplish. Be sure you double check that you are registered to vote well in advance. This is a very patriotic act .

How about you get your head out of your ass and concentrate on the actual monster in the White House, and not the scary women who live in your worm addled brain 24/7.

Lauren Boebert epitomizes MAGA -- talks tough, thinks she's so clever, and when called on her bullshit by someone who actually is tough as nails, starts quivering and cowering. And then afterwards, struts and smirks as if she's won something.

A clip from the moment Hillary Clinton found out Lauren Boebert took an unauthorized photo of her deposition: 'I'm done!'

They really all do have social media brain, don’t they? You do the big thing, get your posts in, tell everyone to like and subscribe, and then the next day it all resets - come back, do it again. Unable to comprehend that some bells can’t be unrung. Some events can take on a momentum of their own.

He is such a clown

Making them look like fools.

I know that I sound like a broken record but I think once this society was ok with accepting mass covid deaths just to be able to eat at Applebees then all bets were off.

for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc

Karen is 💯 right about Wendy needing to stop talking. #rhop

Fucking morons have no idea how much we hate them.

The thing is, we hate them because of who they are and the hate us because of who they are.

Seems to be the pattern…

Very few ideas have been as utterly discredited by the last few years as the idea that it’s actually good to tear down an imperfectly observed, aspirational ideological facade and ‘be honest’

Every major disaster in this country over my lifetime has been self inflicted by right wing ideologues with just enough complicit or inert Democrats to enable or ratify them. That's why we've been on this doom trajectory for the last ~50 years and it'll keep getting worse if that doesn't change
